Let's compile the List of Works of Fiction Depicting Prediction Markets!

  • Any media: Books, short stories, movies, audio dramas, manga, video games, etc.

    • Adaptations of the same story to different media (eg: book + audio book) generally count as just one work. If an adaptation is so loose as to be mostly an original story, I may decide to count it as two works.

  • Translations of one work into multiple languages count as one work.

  • The work must have some minimal engagement with prediction markets. For example, a character bets in one, or makes a choice based on information gleaned from the price or movement of a prediction market. Merely mentioning that prediction markets exist as a background detail isn't enough to count. Use as technobabble (eg: if the phrase "prediction market" could be replaced with "internet forum" without affecting the structure of the story) does not count.

    • Example stories that mention prediction markets only superficially, and so don't meet this requirement: "Onward to Providence: Alien Trucker with Goldfish Stowaways" and EagleJarl's "Team Anko".

  • Creating new prediction market fiction to move this market is allowed and encouraged.

    • Please don't spam chatbot-generated fluff. I reserve the right to exclude low-effort, not-very-good stories.

    • Market close timing chosen to accommodate NaNoWriMo. :)

  • Please don't delete or edit comments to remove listings to try to manipulate the count. It won't work: I'll be archiving the comments periodically and I'll re-post valid listings before resolving.
